Lori Drew guilty on lesser counts

I bet you anything this gets kicked on appeal ...

From The AP: The federal jury could not reach a verdict on the main charge
against 49-year-old Lori Drew - conspiracy - and rejected three other
felony counts of accessing computers without authorization to inflict
emotional harm.

Instead, the panel found Drew guilty of three
misdemeanor offenses of accessing computers without authorization. Each
count is punishable by up to a year in prison and a $100,000 fine. Drew
could have gotten 20 years if convicted of the four original charges.
